I think that any objects that a developer puts into the CVS should be included in the packages. There are a a couple exceptions: when it would cause a name conflict and when that developer doesn't want it to be included.
So as long as the cyclone objects don't have any library dependencies, then they should be part of the main package.

So what do you think ? (I do not have any concrete plans yet, have to take a closer look first).
Afer all, one purpose of the CVS is to built a stronger external developer community, so everyone's opinion counts. The worst thing that can happen is if someone does not contribute because it seemed that I was imposing something.

We should get rid of the concept of libraries. (Hide the "external
